Why You Need an Boating Accident Lawyer

If you spend time on our lakes and rivers the chances are you own or enjoy the use of a boat for pleasure sailing, motoring, kayaking, canoeing, fishing and waterskiing or you swim, dive or raft in an area where there are motor or sailboats. No matter the circumstances leading up to your watersport related injury, you are entitled to full medical benefits, care and compensation, which is why it’s vital to consult with a personal injury lawyer.

Ontario alone has six types of claims contingent on the type of Too often boating accidents occur when a boat is not properly maintained; when the operator has been drinking or partying; when visibility is poor, when the operator is not familiar with the waters or any combination of these factors. Coupled with this is the fact that the only water vessels requiring a Pleasure Craft Operator’s License or boat license are those with motors and Boater’s Insurance is not mandatory in Ontario. Often time boats are covered under Homeowner’s Insurance policies – but not always; nor are all boat operators licensed or even own the boat. This presents a complex set of problems when assigning responsibility to recoup losses. If you have been injured in a boating accident you need a Boating Accident Lawyer on your side.
